FYI if anyone needs TV parts, www.shopjimmy.com is really great about returns and has almost everything.
Yep, that's the exact problem I had. The connector would wobble and you could see several of the pin had no solder on them at all. Strange thing is I wasn't moving the TV or touching it all when it happened. Guess the heat finally caused just enough movement. Hopefully the fix will last. Otherwise been a pretty reliable TV.
